WALKIE TALKIES
'PLAYTIME' MODEL 1905

'Computer-gray' COLOR
Circa
1988

These are 'walkie talkies' in the style of 'brick' cell phones. They are pretty much true to form for design, with the small 'push to talk' button on the left side and the 'volume' control on the right. The 'rubber ducky' antennas do not detach. They are functioning walkie talkies that require a standard 9-volt battery to work. Lower section of number pad can be pressed to activate and send Morse Code tone. Both are in great cosmetic shape. The antennas are slightly 'tweaked' and not perfectly straight. One has the battery door 'latch' broken, but door is there. Likely work on CB channel 14 as most single channel walkie talkies do. Antenna installed. Measures 3" deep x 14" tall with antenna installed.
Cond. 8.5
